Quite A Phone Bank!

I’ve been getting e-mails from different environmental organizations for over a week pushing for the passage of climate legislation in Congress. I don’t know the total between all of them, and it’s likely some callers verified their call with more than one organization, but just the numbers I’m seeing from Repower America are incredible. Here’s the opening of an e-mail they sent to me. Keep up the good work guys! Oh, and if you haven’t, call your Senator.

“Last week we flooded the Senate with the biggest call-in campaign in our movement’s history. Thanks to you, Repower America supporters alone made more than 62,000 calls for a strong energy and climate bill, far surpassing our ambitious goal of 50,000.”

**Update** : I’m now hearing over 300,000 calls were made between all environmental groups!
